From the SKILL.md

# Loop GitHub Issues Run the autonomous loop to execute features from GitHub Issues. ## Usage ``` /loop-github-issues # Interactive: shows available PRDs and asks which to run /loop-github-issues --all # Run all available PRDs (no prompt) /loop-github-issues auth-flow # Run PRDs matching search term /loop-github-issues 25 # Run with 25 iterations per PRD /loop-github-issues --all 25 # Run all PRDs with 25 iterations each ``` When running non-interactively (background mode), `--all` is auto-enabled. ## Prerequisites - `gh` CLI authenticated - PRD issues created via `/ralph-github-create-issues` (reads from `.claude/plans/` or `prds/`) **Note:** Assume gh extensions are installed. Do NOT try to install them. ## Process 1. Check prerequisites (`gh auth status`) 2. Run the script directly - it handles PRD selection and filtering: ```bash ~/.claude/skills/loop-github-issues/loop-github-issues.sh [iterations] [prd-search-term] [--all] ``` Use `run_in_background: true` to prevent timeout. **Monitoring progress:** - Local status: `cat /tmp/ralph-status-{repo}-{prd-number}.txt` - GitHub: Comments are posted to the PRD issue as stories complete **Important**: Don't list PRDs separately befor

About this skill
What does the ralph-github-start-loop skill do?

Runs autonomous loop fetching stories from GitHub Issues. Implements and closes issues as done. Triggers on "loop through my PRDs", "work on my issues", "start the autonomous loop", "implement my PRDs", or requests to work through GitHub issues autonomously.

How do I install it?

Run `npx skills add majiayu000/claude-skill-registry --skill ralph-github-start-loop --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.

Where does this skill come from?

From majiayu000/claude-skill-registry, a repository with 534 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.

Is a popular skill a good skill?

Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
